What is the Utah Association?

The Utah Association is a member association of USA Track & Field representing the geographic area of the State of Utah. The Utah Association has over 1,500 members. About half of our members are youth under 18 years of age and the other half are over 18 and compete in many different disciplines and age groups.

UTAH/USATF oversees and administers State wide programs in track and field, long distance running, ultrarunning, race walking and youth athletics. The Utah Association sanctions many athletic events annually, providing much-needed liability insurance to event managers and host communities.

Board Meetings are held on the 3rd Thursday of every month at 7 P.M. at the home of John and Kris Erickson, 4725 Sycamore Drive in Holladay. Other committees also meet regularly. Please contact the individual committee chairs concerning the time and place of their meetings.
